On this trip to the state of Chu, Yan Ruo asked to go together.

Gu Yunjie did not refuse. Yan Ruo's medical skills are superb, and with her, the poison on Chu Chu's body may be quickly resolved.

Three days later, Gu Yunjie and the others set off in full gear.

Gu Lan's eyes were reluctant: "I don't know anyone over there, so keep a low profile." Safety is the most important thing, you know. ”

The old lady was red-eyed, and knew that it was useless to keep it, so she asked more.

"Milk, you can rest assured. I still remember your birthday. Chu Chu and I will come back early to celebrate your birthday. ”

"Don't lie to me, old lady, I'll wait for you at home."

"It's good at home."

The carriage was on the road, looking at the crowd farther and farther away, Xiao Jie felt a little uncomfortable.

Perhaps, she already has an attachment to this world.

"The fact that Chu Chu is from Chu was told to the emperor by the previous five princes. Their emperor talked to him, which made the emperor suspicious. The emperor didn't dare to show it in front of me, but he still asked to find out Chu Chu's life experience. Mother, this time, there will be no less. On the way, Gu Yunjie and Yan Ruo told the truth.

If Yan Ruo has not experienced anything, this is nothing: "The second prince and the fifth prince are using the emperor's hand to lead you to the Chu State." When they arrived in the country of Chu, what was the identity of Chu Chu, they had the final say. ”

Gu Yunjie chuckled: "Mother, maybe you really guessed right, Chu Chu may be one of the princes among them." ”

"I've also heard about the royal family of Chu State. I heard that when Emperor Chu ascended the throne, he married the daughter of Lord Shoufu at that time. Five years after Emperor Chu ascended the throne, it was said that Lord Shoufu had colluded with other countries, and Emperor Chu ordered the house of Lord Shoufu to be raided, and the queen at that time was sent to the cold palace because of her intercession for her father.

When she was beaten into the cold palace, the queen and the concubine of the Chu emperor were also thrown into the cold palace together. A year after Empress Chu entered the cold palace, the cold palace caught fire, and the queen of Chu was buried in the fire with her son-in-law. ”

"It's a pity that this queen and the concubine of the middle palace died like this." Gu Yunjie sighed, she looked at Chu Chu: "Chu Chu, have you heard the story of this Queen of Chu?" ”

"I've heard about some. When Emperor Chu was still a prince, he was engaged to the Liu family. For the sake of their daughter, the Liu family can be said to be dedicated to supporting him to the throne. With the help of the Liu family, Emperor Chu got his wish and ascended the throne. Emperor Chu also kept his promise and married the daughter of the Liu family.

Emperor Chu is Liu Xiang's only daughter, and she is Liu Xiang's pearl. The person in Emperor Chu's heart is not Liu Ruyi, but a girl named Qingcheng. This Qingcheng girl saved him when she was young and had a life-saving grace for him, and later the two secretly agreed. But he has to have help to ascend the throne, and the Liu family is his help.

When Miss Liu asked the emperor for marriage, although he didn't agree in his heart, he still agreed after weighing it. Because of the marriage, the two families were tied together. After the Qingcheng girl learned that he was engaged, she left the country and was killed by thieves.

Emperor Chu has always been haunted by the death of the Qingcheng girl. Later, it turned out that all this was done by the Liu family.

It was the Liu family who killed his sweetheart, if it wasn't for Liu Ruyi's sudden forced marriage, if it wasn't for the Liu family's move, Qingcheng wouldn't have died.

But for the sake of his throne, he has been waiting, waiting for the right time to avenge the girl named Qingcheng. The opportunity finally came, and the He family found a letter out of nowhere, saying that the Liu family colluded with Da'an Guo and that the Liu family was suspected of treason. Emperor Chu was probably also waiting for this opportunity, and when the He family handed over the evidence, Emperor Chu ordered the Liu family's house to be raided, and Queen Chu was angry by the emperor because she defended and interceded for her father, and ordered to enter the cold palace.

Yan Ruo was a little surprised when she heard Chu Chu's words: "Xiao Chu, you know a lot about the affairs of the royal family of Chu State. I haven't heard of any of these things. I only know that the Liu family and the Chu Emperor were engaged back then, and the marriage was indeed proposed by Miss Liu first, but from beginning to end, the Chu Emperor did not refuse. I also wondered if the two were in love with each other, so Miss Liu took the initiative to propose, and it turned out that there were still these things in the middle. ”

Miss Liujia Ruyi is the only daughter of Liu Xiang, and she is the pearl of her palm. Despite this, she is not delicate and unreasonable, on the contrary, she is knowledgeable, gentle and elegant. Why did she take the initiative to propose, I think she really likes Emperor Chu. If she really likes it, which woman will take the initiative to marry a man she doesn't like.

These things are the secrets of the royal family of Chu State, and ordinary people can't find out.

Chu Chu knew so clearly, it was indeed a little strange.

Chu Chu smiled, with sadness in his eyes: "Mother, that Miss Liu is my mother." Naturally, I am clear about her. ”

Yan Ruo's mouth couldn't close.

So, Chu Chu is .......

Hearing this, Yan Ruo didn't speak again, just sighed: "Back then, Emperor Chu had someone in his heart, and when your mother took the initiative to ask the emperor to give the emperor, why didn't he refuse." While enjoying the road paved for him by the Liu family, he disliked the Liu family and killed his sweetheart. As far as I know, if it weren't for Liu Xiang's forces, Emperor Chu wouldn't have been able to compete for the crown prince at that time. ”

"People are like that. When he wanted the throne wholeheartedly, he naturally understood that the Liu family was his best choice. When he sat in that position, he remembered the woman he had loved when he was young, and thought of the cause of her death. He didn't dare to face himself, so he pushed everything onto the Liu family, saying that the Liu family killed the woman. Wasn't he the one who killed his sweetheart? "Gu Yunjie is very shameful about Emperor Chu's actions.

You're done enjoying the resources you've been given, and when you're done using them, kick them away, and you're in the face.

Typical bridge crossing and demolition.

"Then you ...... come back this time." Yan Ruo had already felt that Xiao Jie and Chu Chu came back this time, and I am afraid that it was not as simple as finding an antidote.

"Mother, they came to the door, how can we not respond. My father-in-law has suffered so many grievances, and this revenge must be avenged. There is also the He family, who is also one of the murderers of our Jin family. ”

This time I came to Chu State, and I didn't have too many things to do.

"Mother, when I get revenge, I have to trouble you to help me and Xiaojie manage my marriage again. On that day in Shangbao Village, Xiaojie and I had gone through the clan ceremony, but the ceremony was too simple, and I wanted to give Xiaojie a beautiful wedding. ”

"Okay, as long as we all come back safely, these are small things. What we have to face is the He family, the first family of the Chu family, and the royal family, are you sure? "Chu Chu has been dormant outside for so many years, there should always be some power.

It is also unknown how sure the Shanghe family and the royal family are.

"If you decide to come back, you have to fight it. The enemy cannot be allowed to go unpunished because he is not sure. Gu Yunjie said this.

Chu Chu seemed to see Yan Ruo's worries: "Mother, this matter is just my personal matter, and I shouldn't have implicated you." No matter what, I will keep you and Xiaojie safe, as for myself, it depends on God's will. ”

He has indeed cultivated some forces over the years, but he has no idea what these forces will do to the royal family.

If he could, he didn't want to involve Xiao Jie.

Xiaojie is his daughter and his wife, and he just wants her to be safe.

"Don't say these frustrating words just yet. As a son of man, it is only natural that you avenge your mother. Your grandfather died unjustly, and your mother died unjustly, these things must be investigated, and you have done nothing wrong. Although I don't know much about the situation of Chu State, I also lived in Chu State Elementary School for a period of time, and I know that Liu Xiang is not that kind of person, and there must be a secret to his death. ”

Yan Ruo met Liu Xiang once, and he was an upright middle-aged man.

He only married one woman in his life, and after his wife died, he never married a wife or took a concubine, only Liu Ruyi had a daughter.

A month later, the carriage arrived at the border of Daanguo.

After passing the defense line, the opposite side is the state of Chu.

They travel as merchants.

Many of the soldiers guarding now are the soldiers of General Jin.

They stayed at the border for two days.

The current border general's surname is Ning, and he is also a member of the Iron Cavalry Army.

In fact, the Iron Cavalry is more than just a team.

This also includes some officers and officers in the barracks.

Last time, the emperor helped the Jin family find out the real culprit behind the scenes, and issued an edict. She also intended to hand over the Iron Rider Order.

The emperor didn't take it back, but only said that he would let her go here first.

The case of the Jin family has just been settled, and it is somewhat inappropriate for him to withdraw the iron riding order now.

So the Iron Rider Order is still in her hand.

The emperor sent her to Chu this time, not necessarily without temptation.

Two days later, they left the border and entered the territory of the state of Chu.

As soon as they entered the state of Chu, their group was assassinated. Those people are not very heavy, probably just to test them and see their true strength.

Unfortunately, Chu Chu suffered a knife to his shoulder blade, bleeding non-stop, and his old illness recurred.

Of course not really hurt.

Those people want to be tempted, and they must not put some false news out.

At this time, Chu Chu, who was seriously ill and couldn't get out of bed, was lying on the carriage, enjoying the feeding of his own lady.

"Now that it has entered the territory of Chu State, this assassination must not be carried out in waves." Gu Yunjie gave herself a grape and sat in the carriage a little bored.

In ancient times, this was not good, and most of the time when you wanted to go was on the road.

This is going to be in modern times, and in more than a month, she has returned from a world trip.

The modern has the benefits of the modern, and the ancient has the benefits of the ancient.

The destination they are going to is naturally the imperial city and capital of the Chu State.

……

"Second Emperor Brother." The fifth prince strode into the second prince's study: "I just received the news that the sick son surnamed Chu is here."

"So many killers didn't kill him along the way, this person does have some ability. You send someone to contact him and see who he is. Can it be used by us. If it is not of use to us, no matter who he is, he will not be left alive. ”

"With his body, if you want me to see it, I guess I'll die if we don't do it."

"You're still naïve. You don't want to think about it, the two miracle doctors around him really want to die so easily, he has died eight hundred times earlier. ”

"Is there any movement over there in the He family?"

"Not for the time being, they don't seem to care at all about Gu Yunjie and her party coming to the capital."

"A female marquis who has no real power is really not worth their trouble. However, the old fox of the He family has always acted inconspicuously, so we still have to be careful. ”

……

When Gu Yunjie's carriage drove into the capital, it was dusk.

It had snowed heavily a few days ago, and the roof was covered with a layer of snow, and when the sun shone on it, it was shining with gold, which was very beautiful.

Because it was too cold, the streets were closed, and not many pedestrians walked on the streets.

"It's so cold in here." Gu Yunjie shuddered: "If I can watch a heavy snow fall, I am not afraid of the cold." ”

"At the end of the year, there will definitely be another snowfall." After walking for more than a month, the year will be closed for a few more days.

"Do you have any rules for celebrating the New Year in Chu State?"

"I don't know, for as long as I can remember, I haven't had a New Year." In those years, I mixed with the pile of dead people and picked up rancid rice to eat, and at that time there was only one thought, that is, to live.

As for what the festival was like, he didn't dare to think about it.

When he thinks of the holidays, he thinks of his mother.

She and her mother died in the fire of the Spring Festival.

He doesn't want to celebrate the New Year now, when he thinks of the New Year, he thinks of the monstrous fire that night, and the desperate voice of the queen mother: "Yu'er, go quickly, you must live well." ”

The queen mother pushed him, and he was taken away by someone covering his eyes.

This was the last time he got along with his mother.

There must have been such a big fire that night, the queen mother must have been in pain.

Gu Yunjie felt the monstrous hatred in his heart, and gently held his hand: "Actually, it doesn't matter if the New Year is not the New Year, you are safe, your mother must be very happy." ”

Yan Ruo listened to Chu Chu's words, and was also very distressed.

Who would have thought that Chu Chu, who is the concubine of Chu State and has the potential to become the crown prince, would have such a life situation.

Knowing that their carriage had arrived, the second and fifth princes arranged for someone to pick them up, and arranged them in a manor.

"Gu Houye, I heard that your father-in-law is also from the Chu State, so in this way, you are also our daughter-in-law of the Chu State. When you come to us, you are considered to be back in your own home, and you are welcome. Tell us what is lacking or what is missing, and we will naturally arrange it. ”

"Thank you two princes for being so thoughtful." Gu Yunjie bowed her head slightly.

"My father has always had a heart disease. My father was very happy to learn that we had invited two miracle doctors, and I wondered if I could invite them into the palace to help my father diagnose and treat one or two. ”

"Emperor Chu invited, Xiao Jie and I naturally didn't dare to hold it up. Please tell Emperor Chu that Xiao Jie and I can treat him at any time. ”

"That's the best." Seeing that the two who knew the current affairs did not refuse, the second prince was very happy: "I'll go back to show my father." ”

After the second prince left, Gu Yunjie looked at Chu Chu: "Are you going to meet him?" If you stand in front of him, will he recognize you? ”

"I'm going to meet him sooner or later, not this one. Lady, their purpose is me, you just come as normal, don't let them find out that something is wrong. ”

"Don't worry, we're not stupid, we won't rush to send people's heads." Gu Yunjie's eyebrows were crooked.
